β¦ Synopsis
Several forms of thin-film solar cells are being examined as alternatives to silicon-solar cells, one of the most promising technologies is the dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC), with proven efficiencies that approach 11%. This book, which provides a comprehensive look at this promising technology, aims to provide both a graduate level text that brings together the fundamentals of DSC from three perspectives (materials, performance, and mechanistic aspects), as well as to serve as an advanced monograph that summarizes the key advances and lists the technical challenges remaining to be solved.

This new book presents current research in the study of dye-sensitized solar cells and solar cell performance. Topics discussed include advanced large area thin film Si solar cells; photovoltage improvement for dye-sensitized solar cells; environmental performance of photovoltaic cells; solar simula
Renewable energies have become an attractive option to overcome the energy demands in sustainable and affordable ways. It has been estimated that one-third of the total renewable energies would be generated from photovoltaics (PVs). A solar or PV cell is a device that directly converts sunlight into
